Yorktown and Banquete first met in 1980, when the Wildcats earned a 29-18 win. The two programs renewed the series in recent years, with Yorktown claiming the most recent matchup in 2024 by a 34-14 score.
Banquete is looking to turn the page after finishing 3-7 overall and 1-5 in district play last season. The Bulldogs enter 2025 under new leadership, as the former offensive coordinator steps into the head coaching role. He inherits an experienced roster, with eight starters returning on offense and nine on defense.
Running back Abraham Chapa will look to lead the Bulldogs’ offense this season, after finishing with 103 yards and one touchdown on 16 carries. He’ll once again be joined by Tyler Landreth (1 carry, 8 yards) and Blas Villarreal (2 carries, 46 yards). This year, junior Bradley Gomez takes over as the full-time quarterback, tasked with leading the offense.
